    The journal entry would be

    New Equipment (crane) $ 122,400 Dr

    Depreciation Expense (old crane) $ 68,000 Dr

    Old Equipment $ 190,400 Cr

    As the price of the new equipment is not given the profit or loss cannot be estimated. the whole amount less depreciation is transferred to new equipment account. if depreciation is treated separately and not set off against the equipment the entry would be under the accrual basis of accounting

    New Equipment (crane) $ 122,400 Dr

    Depreciation Expense (old crane) $ 68,000 Dr

    Old Equipment $ 122,400 Cr

    Accumulated Depreciation $ 68,000 Cr
